| Name
|
Used to enter a name for the occupancy component
placed in the selected room.
|
| Number of people mode
|
Defines how the number of people are derived for the
selected room. The available modes are:
-
Absolute — Used to define the number of people in terms of persons using an
integer value. Selecting this mode activates the Number of people setting.
- People
per area — Used to define the number of people in terms of persons per units of
area. Selecting this mode activates the People per area setting.
- Area
per person — Used to define the number of people in terms of square units of
area per person. Selecting this mode activates the Area per person setting.
|
| Number of people
|
When enabled, used to directly enter the number of
people who occupy the selected room.
|
| People per area
|
When enabled, used to define the number of people
who occupy the selected room in terms of persons per units of area.
|
| Area per person
|
Used to define the number of people who occupy the
selected room in terms of square units of area per person.
|
| Body latent
|
Sets the latent occupancy gain component for the
people who occupy the selected room. The Activity type selected sets the
default value, but can be changed at any time. The Body latent value is used to
calculate the full occupancy gains for the room.
|
| Body sensible
|
Sets the sensible occupancy gain component for the
people who occupy the selected room. The Activity type selected sets the
default value, but can be changed at any time. The Body sensible value is used
to calculate the full occupancy gains for the room.
|
| Body convective
|
Sets the body convection occupancy gain component
for the people who occupy the selected room. The Activity type selected sets
the default value, but can be changed at any time. The Convection value is used
to calculate the full occupancy gains for the room.
|
| Occupancy schedule
|
Sets the occupancy schedule for the selected room.
|
| Activity type
|
Used to select the activity type for the selected
room. The activity type the persons who occupy the selected room engage in
affects total occupancy gains in the room. When an activity type is selected, OpenBuildings Energy Simulator’s energy databases are accessed and the values for Body
latent, Body sensible, and Body convective are automatically updated. For
instance, activity type Heavy work produces much higher Body latent, Body
sensible and Body convective casual heat gain components than activity type
Seated at rest does. The available activity types are:
- Seated
at rest
- Office
work
- Walking
- Light
work
- Medium
work
- Heavy
work
|
| Activity schedule
|
Used to select an activity schedule for the
selected room. The drop-down list contains appropriately filtered schedules.
